Chancellor & Dean Emeritus Mary Kay Kane has donated $169,000 in honor of John K. "Jack" Smith '54, one of the college's most enthusiastic alumni and chair of the school's Board of Directors while Kane was chancellor and dean.
"Jack adored our school and he adored our students," Kane said. "What I remember was his interest in the students, and his consistent generosity."
Smith passed away four years ago. Before his passing, several friends created the Jack Smith scholarship endowment to honor Smith's dedication to UC Hastings. Kane's gift to the Smith scholarship fund in Fall 2012 more than doubled the size of the fund, which is now worth more than $250,000.
"Jack would have wanted the next generations to have the same opportunities that he did," Kane said. "Personally, right now I think that scholarships for our students are really tremendously important, and that's why I have donated now."
Though Kane is retired from teaching, she remains deeply committed to UC Hastings. "I have benefited from this institution. I believe strongly that every generation should work to make things better for the next generation. We should always be looking ahead. Just as you want your children to have better opportunities than you had, we should think of the students and faculty ahead of us. We have benefited from our predecessors, and now it's time for us to step up to the plate" she said.
"Through former Dean Kane's generosity, UC Hastings will continue in our efforts to reboot legal education," said Chancellor and Dean Frank H. Wu. "This helps us achieve our No. 1 strategic goal, to create outstanding professionals ready to solve 21st century problems." This academic year, the Smith Scholarship award was $12,000.
When Smith attended UC Hastings in the early 1950s, there were only two women in his class, noted his daughter, Cynthia Kerwin Birmingham '83. He was especially excited, then, to work with Kane, the school's first female dean. "He really believed in UC Hastings," Birmingham said. "He was just wedded to the school."
Smith and Kane became a noteworthy fundraising team while Kane was dean and Smith served on the Board of Directors. "The idea of working with Mary Kay, and her having been hired from within, brought him a great deal of satisfaction and joy," Birmingham said.
Smith received the UC Hastings National Alumnus of the Year award in 1989. In 1991, he received the Distinguished Service Award from the 1066 Foundation Board of Trustees, after serving as its president. He was appointed to the UC Hastings Board of Directors in 1999, serving as board chair from 2004-2008, until shortly before his death, at age 81. Smith practiced real estate law as a partner with Haley, Purchio, Sakai & Smith in Hayward, and was heavily involved in California Democratic party politics. He served as the first elected mayor of Hayward, and was vice chair of the Alameda County Coliseum Board.
"My father didn't like to have things named after him," said Birmingham. "That wasn't his style. But the idea that Mary Kay and others thought so highly of him to create a scholarship in his honor is an exception that I think he would approve of."
Smith was concerned about rising tuition, Birmingham said, a concern he shared with Kane. When Kane became dean, in 1993, state funding accounted for some 70 percent of UC Hastings' budget. Tuition was in the $6,000 range. "When I left in 2006, 13 years later, the state contributed only 20 percent of our budget, and tuition was in the $20,000 range. That was bad enough. Now it's worse," Kane said.
During her deanship, Kane became close personal friends with Smith and his family, and often shared holidays with them. Kane, who does not have children, said she views UC Hastings as her progeny.
"UC Hastings is my legacy. It's my family, and I want to see the family get through this crisis and, more than that, to flourish," Kane said.
While she no longer teaches at UC Hastings, Kane is far from retired. "I continue to be the primary author of 14 volumes of the Federal Practice and Procedure treatise, and I have to keep my hornbooks up," said Kane from her office, where she was updating one of the volumes. She also serves on the council of American Law Institute, and has been consulting with Qatar as it updates its legal education system. Additionally, she is active in the law school accreditation process, and is chairing a drafting committee for the National Conference of Bar Examiners, which is adding civil procedure questions for the multistate bar exam.

QUESTION: What are the perceptions of adults living with chronic pain?
Eidetic (descriptive) phenomenology.
13 adults (age range 27–79 y, 69% women, 92% white, 77% married) who were >18 years of age, willing to talk about their lived experiences, and with a duration of non-malignant chronic pain ranging from 7 months to 41 years, were recruited via a newspaper article and network sampling. Pain was most often located in the back, but also in the shoulder, arm, neck, hip, leg, jaw, and ear.
In individual 1–2 hour interviews, participants were asked to describe what it was like to live with chronic pain. The interviews were audiotaped and transcribed verbatim. The transcriptions were analysed independently by the researcher, and then read aloud and discussed by an interdisciplinary research group. Global themes were clustered to produce a thematic structure of the phenomenon.
Main findings
Findings fit into the context of the 3 existential grounds of body, other people, and time. Although the researchers also sought to place findings in the context of the world, the participants rarely commented on it, and seemed to have little awareness of a world external to their pain. Because of chronic pain, the participants were continually aware of having a body (in contrast to healthy individuals' relative lack of consciousness of physical self) that housed their pain and was the main focus of their existence. Participants saw the body as an obstacle rather than an enabler to action. Participants noted the incongruity between thoughts of productive activity and physical inability to enact their intentions. The pain often overtook the mind as well as the body, blocking all other sensation or thought. Participants also noted chronic pain as a physical disorder invisible to the people around them. Participants felt separated from other people because of their chronic pain, and hid their condition to avoid adverse reactions from others. They felt their pain isolated them, yet they were intimately connected to their internal "tormentor," "opponent," or "monster," their chronic pain. Contact with others occurred most often in the context of appointments with a physician, whom participants approached with both hope and mistrust. Few participants mentioned a support person with whom they could freely talk about their pain. The unit of time most important to the participants was the "moment," a concept that defined not only the present time but also a possible eternity of suffering. In the agony of the moment, they experienced a stopping of time as if the moment would never end. The pain also made participants more aware of their aging. After a cyclical process of seeking a cure, many participants came to see treatment as futile and talked about death as a source of final relief from their pain. Only 3 participants perceived positive aspects related to their chronic pain such as facilitating interaction with others and knowledge of self.
Participants with chronic pain experienced and perceived the world through the filter of their pain. Chronic pain affected the way they viewed their bodies, their relationships with others, and their sense of time. They had little perception of the world external to their pain.
In this phenomenological study, Thomas provides valuable insight into the lives of individuals experiencing non-malignant chronic pain. 13 individuals, mostly white married women with varying duration of chronic pain, identified the essence of their pain experience as "unremitting torment, by a force or monster that cannot be tamed." Although the author sought variability in the sample to more clearly identify the phenomenon of pain, only one black woman and 4 men participated in the study. Additional work focusing on cultural, developmental, and gender based issues related to the experience and societal response to chronic pain would enhance understanding of these factors as salient considerations in pain assessment and effective management of patients' pain.
Through analysis of audiotaped interviews by an interdisciplinary team, various figural themes assumed prominence within the context of "body, other people, and time," a framework for the phenomenological approach derived from the Husserlian tradition used in this study. Participant data illustrate the consuming and controlling nature of chronic pain. Most participants denied the transformative nature of chronic pain despite earlier research supporting this experience as beneficial or strengthening to chronically ill individuals. Although actively involved in and ethically bound to deliver quality care to all people, nurses were not perceived by participants as supportive of their pain experience. Additional investigation needs to be completed to discover reasons for non-responsiveness of nursing staff to patient perspectives of pain because of its important influence on patients' defined quality of life. The power of chronic pain to negatively influence a person's definition of a good life demands that healthcare providers effectively assess patients' perceptions of pain and then collaborate with them to implement effective strategies to improve their lives.

Anna in the Tropics is a poignant and poetic new play set in Florida in 1929 in a Cuban-American cigar factory, where cigars are still rolled by hand and "lectors" are employed to educate and entertain the workers. The arrival of a new lector is a cause for celebration, but when he begins to read aloud from Anna Karenina, he unwittingly becomes a catalyst in the lives of his avid listeners, for whom Tolstoy, the tropics and the American dream prove a volatile combination.

text: The Chapter Development Plan (CDP) was created to assess each individual fraternity and sorority chapter based on its internal, external, and risk management operations. The College realizes that many of our fraternity and sorority members are very involved in campus life at Lycoming College. Chapters complete many hours of community service and have many financial obligations. The CDP has been designed for each chapter to reach the standards of excellence set by Lycoming College. The College expects each chapter to pursue standards of excellence each year. Each chapter at Lycoming College is individually unique, but has been founded on four basic principles. The four basic principles are leadership, scholarship, service, and brotherhood or sisterhood. These principles form the foundation from which a chapter can grow and thrive. The concept of the CDP is not meant to be viewed as being competitive in nature but rather viewed as a yearly accreditation process the College requires to ensure both positive progress and the vitality of fraternity and sorority life on the Lycoming College campus.

(TAMPA, Fla.) It's no surprise that SEC's Auburn University was in a nail biting battle between ACC's Florida State University during the BCS National Championship earlier this month. While millions tuned in to college football's biggest event, Steven T. Clark was deep in the action. Clark, Auburn's punter, and now East-West Shrine Game player, was busy maintaining the Tiger's field position during the gut-wrenching and physical exchanges of possession that occurred throughout the entire game.
On Saturday, January 18, 2014, Clark, along with nearly 100 other college football all-stars, will demonstrate his athleticism on the East-West gridiron in St. Petersburg, Fla. for the opportunity to showcase his talents to the many NFL scouts, GMs and coaches in attendance. "My invitation to the East-West Shrine Game is extremely gratifying and unexpected," said Clark. "I was not sure where I would get invited, but I was extremely thrilled I was asked to take part in the Shrine Game."
For Clark, this particular platform is both personal and meaningful. Nearly 40 years ago, Clark's grandfather, Thomas Perry, joined the Shriners Fraternity – the very organization that founded and continues to support all 22 Shriners Hospitals for Children locations today. In 2010, Clark joined his grandfather and cousin as a fellow Shriner and hopes to become more active once graduated.
For Clark, football is always "more than just a game" – it is a way to give back and to contribute to organizations such as Shriners Hospitals for Children. "The East-West Shrine Game is unlike any other bowl game out there," said Clark. "It gives the players a truly meaningful experience and opportunity to play the game they love." In the week to come, Clark is anticipating a win for both the East team and children of Shriners Hospitals.
For more information on the 89th East-West Shrine Game and its beneficiary, Shriners Hospitals for Children, visit shrinegame.com and shrinershospitalsforchildren.org, respectively.
About the East-West Shrine Game
The East-West Shrine Game is the longest-running college all-star football game in the country and features some of the highest-rated players in the projected NFL draft ranking. While the teams are divided by East and West, the players come together for the beneficiary of the event, Shriners Hospitals for Children. For more information, visit shrinegame.com.
Shriners Hospitals for Children is changing lives every day through innovative pediatric specialty care, world-class research and outstanding medical education. The 22 locations in the United States, Canada and Mexico provide advanced care for children with orthopaedic conditions, burns, spinal cord injuries, and cleft lip and palate.
Shriners Hospitals for Children is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization and relies on the generosity of donors. All donations are tax deductible to the fullest extent permitted by law. To learn more about Shriners Hospitals for Children, please visit shrinershospitalsforchildren.org.

NHIAA Baseball: Grizzlies bearing downBy ROGER BROWN
New Hampshire Union Leader
May 08. 2013 11:12PM
GOFFSTOWN - Who's the best NHIAA baseball team in Division II? You could certainly make a strong case for Goffstown.
The Grizzlies were alone atop the Division II standings entering Wednesday's game against Windham and remained there by posting a 14-1 victory in a game shortened to 4 ½ innings because of the 10-run rule.
Goffstown, which returned all but two players from a team that reached the Division II quarterfinals last season, raised its record to 12-1.
"They were the favorite going into the season," Windham coach Derek Lee said. "They have mostly everybody back. They have the most talent. Absolutely."
Windham, which began the day in sole possession of second place, fell to 8-2. Both losses came against Goffstown.
It was a 1-1 game after two innings, but Goffstown scored five runs in the third and eight in the fourth. Center fielder Chris Garrison did the most of the damage. He had two doubles, scored twice and drove in three runs.
"They're the best hitting high school team I've ever seen," Lee said. "Every ball is hit hard, even the outs. That's what's impressive.
"It was the first time all year that our pitching staff didn't throw strikes. When your pitching staff doesn't throw strikes it doesn't give you a chance."
Tyler Barss, who will pitch for the University of Rhode Island, improved his record to 3-0 by limiting Windham to two hits in four innings. Tyler Perron pitched a one-two-three fifth.
"These guys have played together for a long time," Goffstown coach Adam Lawrence said. "They're used to each other and they know how to play the game."
Zach Storro, Adam Routhier and Perron also had two-hit games for Goffstown. Connor Whittemore and Adam Dolan had Windham's two hits.
Goffstown has seven seniors on its roster. The only blemish on the team's record is a 6-4 setback against Pembroke Academy.
"They're playing well and they show up to play every day, which is nice," Lawrence said. "They have the same attitude in practice.
"Winning that championship game has been their goal from Day 1. Hopefully we get there."

History of Bon Secours
The Sisters of Bon Secours were founded in 1824 to respond to the needs of those who were sick and dying in Paris by providing health care to them in their homes. Through their care, they believed that they were bringing God's healing, compassion and liberation to those in need by helping to alleviate their suffering and bringing a message of hope and assurance that there is a God who loves them.
The first three Sisters of Bon Secours arrived in Baltimore, Maryland, in 1881, and established their first hospital in 1919. By 1980, the Sisters had established or assumed responsibility for several Catholic hospitals, long-term care facilities, and other health care services. The Sisters formed Bon Secours Health System in 1983 to provide skilled, unified management and professional resources for all their health care operations while preserving their Catholic tradition of providing quality care to all, especially to those who are poor, sick and dying.
Since 1983, through acquisitions and joint ventures with other religious and non-sectarian organizations, the system has added facilities in several communities—Charleston and Greenville, South Carolina; Portsmouth, Richmond, Norfolk, and Newport News, Virginia; Suffern, Riverdale, Warwick, and Port Jervis, New York; Ashland, Kentucky; and St. Petersburg, Florida. In 2016, Bon Secours Health System became Bon Secours.
According to the Catholic Health Association, "Sponsorship of a health care ministry is a formal relationship between an authorized Catholic organization and a legally formed system, hospital, clinic, nursing home (or other institution) entered into for the sake of promoting and sustaining Christ's healing ministry to people in need." The Catholic Church authorizes sponsors to minister, then holds them accountable for their ministry.
The Sisters of Bon Secours sponsored Bon Secours facilities since 1919 when the Bon Secours Hospital opened in Baltimore. Between 1983 and 2006, the sisters were the sole sponsoring entity for Bon Secours Health System.
In 2006, the Vatican approved the formation of Bon Secours Ministries as the sponsor of Bon Secours Health System. Although the Sisters of Bon Secours, USA, were the sponsors for the health system for 23 years, the new model enables them to share sponsorship of the health system with lay leaders. Bringing on leaders other than Sisters of Bon Secours into the role of sponsorship helps ensure the continuance of the sisters' Catholic health ministry into the future.
Over the years, other congregations of women religious joined with the Sisters of Bon Secours to expand the healing ministry of Jesus and the Catholic Church. In these situations, Bon Secours Ministries and the other religious congregations are considered co-sponsors, sharing sponsorship responsibilities. Today, these co-sponsoring congregations are the Bernardine Sisters of the Third Order of St. Francis, Newport News, Virginia, and the Sisters of Charity of St. Elizabeth, Convent Station, New Jersey, Suffern, New York.

HOUSTON — "When I threw it against the backboard, I was thinking dunk," McGee said. "I thought if I didn't dunk it, I was going to get taken out of the game."
Well, the play worked. I couldn't believe it. What a play.

Drug Delivery
After Niko has completed the second mission for Little Jacob, he offers Niko work as a drug courier.
From then on, whenever Niko calls Little Jacob for work, the latter will give him a location where his "product" needs to be delivered. The drugs are located in a car parked next to the Homebrew Cafe on the Broker-Dukes Expressway. You can use this vehicle (which is a very hard to control, not to mention decrepit backfiring beater) or your own (you just have to get in to pick up the product) or you can simply call a taxi that will take you there instantly (which helps if you have to complete the delivery within a given timeframe). If Niko gains a wanted level before getting to the buyer, the player will have to lose the wanted level, which can be a hassle with timed deliveries. Completing the delivery successfully raises Jacob's fondness of Niko. While failing the delivery will decrease it. Niko will phone Jacob at the end of a delivery, either positively or negatively (depending on whether the player failed or succeeded). Completing a drug delivery will also earn the player $250.
The deliveries take to you numerous locations in Broker and Dukes, and play out in a different order each time. They fall into the following categories:
- Timed: The buyer is waiting to deal and is getting nervous, the player must reach them and make the deal within a time limit. The time limit is usually very short, so any delay due to crashing, wanted level, etc. will likely result in failure. Note: the GPS route shown is not always the quickest route to the target.
- Stash: The player must stash the product in a secure location for the buyer to pick it up later. Typically, a rival gang knows about the stash point and ambushes the player when they make the drop, leading to a shootout. The player must kill all rival gang members to complete the mission. It's advisable that Niko have full health and, ideally, full body armor before taking on this mission.
- Deal: The player must meet with the buyers to make the deal. There is no time limit, but when the transaction is complete the police will show up and crash the party, prompting a shootout between them and the dealers. The player must escape and lose their 2 star wanted level to complete the mission. This is very difficult using the beater Jacob provides, so it's advisable Niko get better wheels quickly.
Once the player has successfully completed ten deliveries, Jacob will send a text message saying the police are cracking down and there will be no more deliveries. Completing all ten deliveries will reward the player the Courier Service achievement. Your reward for finishing will be a Huntley Sport with a unique jamaican flag colored paint job.

1st step taken to sell Kane sewer water to drillers
The Kane Borough Sewer Authority voted 3-0 Monday to take what has been called "the first step" in a plan to sell treated sewage water to drillers of Marcellus Shale natural gas wells.Dave Peterson, the new chairman of the five-member authority, joined with board members Frank Wojcik and Phil Lingenfelter in authorizing KLH Engineers of Pittsburgh to prepare water sale permit applications with the state Department of Environmental Protection (DEP).Kane Mayor Doug Caldwell, also a board member, did not attend the authority meeting at the borough building along Bayard Street. The authority now has only four members due to the death last month of Jim Salvamoser.According to a notice from KLH, it appears that fees for the permit work are estimated at about $13,000. Additional engineering and construction costs are estimated at between $20,000 to $30,000 for the water sale proposal.Erik Ross, a local attorney who serves as solicitor for the board, said the authority will need to "sell a lot of water to make that back."See full article by purchasing the Jan. 17 edition of The Kane Republican.

Tune into KWUR (www.kwur.com) online (or 90.3 FM as the radio dial flies) for a chat with Ron Jeremy at 4PM CST. At 6PM CST, he will be debating Pastor Craig Gross as part of the Great Porn Debate in Graham Chapel. KWUR will likely cover this event live as well, barring any last-minute legal issues.
Upon hearing the debate news, my brother exclaimed, "they're letting Ron Jeremy speak in a church??!"
From what I've heard, the chancellor is pretty dodgy about sex-related talk on campus. I'm sure he will not be gracing us with his presence, despite Ron Jeremy's eloquent nature of public speech (must've learned it in porn or something…)
p.s. Pastor Gross: friendliest pedosmile ever

text: Potash Shake-Up Continues to Take Toll September 24, 2013 10:23 AM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Bloomberg Email Agrium Inc. is the latest North American potash producer to cut its sales forecast as the breakup of the world's largest mrketing bloc for the crop nutrient begins to take its toll. Agrium, the third-largest North American producer, expects to sell 30 percent less potash in the third quarter and forecast a 64 percent drop in profit from its wholesale fertilizer division, the Calgary-based company said yesterday. U.S.-based Mosaic Co., the second-biggest producer, cut its sales forecast by about 20 percent on Sept. 16. The potash market has been roiled since OAO Uralkali, the world's largest producer, announced it had pulled out of an export sales venture with its Belarusian counterpart on July 30. The Russian company said it would boost output and start selling at lower prices, a move that sent shares of fertilizer companies falling. Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan Inc., North America's biggest producer and a member of rival export group Canpotex Ltd. with Agrium and Mosaic, won't be spared the drop in demand, said Peter Prattas, an analyst at Cantor Fitzgerald LP in Toronto. "They're all going to hurt equally given the fact that they're a collected group," Prattas said yesterday in a telephone interview. 'Essentially Paralyzed' Potash Corp. Chief Financial Officer Wayne Brownlee said during a Sept. 18 investor conference in New York that volumes in offshore markets "have been essentially paralyzed." He said today Canpotex's strategy won't change because of Uralkali's intention to focus on increased volumes. "If we signal to competitors, or to potential competitors, that we will back out of markets then we won't have a business for a long-term basis," Brownlee said today at a conference in Toronto. "So there is no change in strategy going forward. It will be consistent and always to optimize profitability." Buyers are holding back, in anticipation that prices will sink, before stocking up on the crop nutrient, said John Hughes, an analyst at Desjardins Securities Inc. in Toronto. "Why buy today at 400 bucks U.S. a ton potash if the general perspective is we're going to head to $300 or $350?" Hughes said yesterday by phone. Missing Estimates The change is affecting Uralkali as well, Danila Yakub, a Moscow-based analyst for UBS AG, said in a Sept. 20 report. Russian customs data suggests September exports may be down 40 percent from the average of the prior 12 months, Yakub said. Agrium, which also produces nitrogen and phosphate fertilizers and is the largest U.S. farm-products retailer, raised its dividend by 50 percent, citing "strength in the long-term agriculture fundamentals." The company also forecast third-quarter wholesale fertilizer sales that were worse than estimated, Hughes said. "Most were looking for maybe a 15 or 20 percent decline in sales volume, and we're getting a 25 to 30," he said. Agrium fell 0.6 percent to C$89 at 11:41 a.m. in Toronto, while Potash Corp. dropped 0.7 percent to C$32.81. Mosaic, based in Plymouth, Minnesota, declined 0.5 percent to $44.50 in New York. Potash, which helps strengthen plant roots and improve resistance to drought, isn't traded on public exchanges. Prices for delivery at Vancouver's port have fallen to $410 a metric ton, 19 percent less than a year earlier, according to data from Green Markets, a fertilizer-industry information provider that is a unit of Bloomberg LP, the parent of Bloomberg News. Lower Prices The average retail potash price in 11 U.S. states has declined 11 percent to $538.93 a ton since the Uralkali breakup, according to data from Green Markets. Prattas said global prices may decline further. "In order for volumes to recover, the price does have to come down lower," he said. The Russia-Belarus marketing group, formerly known as Belarusian Potash Co., may be back together by the end of the year, Hughes said. Uralkali announced today a unit of China's sovereign wealth fund traded its Uralkali bonds for shares, giving it a 12.5 percent equity stake in the company. China is the world's biggest potash consumer and benefits from lower prices. The move could give it more sway in any future contract negotiations, Kirill Chuyko, head of equity research at BCS Financial Group in Moscow, said by phone. "We don't know if there are any additional terms in the agreement between China and Uralkali and its owners," Chuyko said. A reunification of potash producers in the former Soviet Union doesn't mean prices will increase, Prattas said. The two companies may agree to keep volumes high and prices low, he said. "That's yet to be determined," Prattas said. Back to news

2004 De Lisio the Catalyst
A roughly 50-50 blend of Shiraz and Grenache.
Wow, what a wine, from the amazing dense purple colour through to the flamboyant, aromatic intense nose stuffed full of fruit, this is some wine!
Forget those soft and confectionary Australian Grenaches, this is the goods! The nose is chock a block full of ripe fruit, Grenache taking the front of stage, exuberant cherries, squashed plums, blackberries and cream, with an overwhelming crushed raspberry core, with touches of spicy oak, earth and milk chocolate peeking around the edges. Shiraz provides the depth of plum and blackberry accented fruit.
On the palate this is all class. It has a wonderful velvety, creamy mouthfeel, incredible depth and purity of fruit, and length to burn. Its an opulent mouthful of fruit, but with very long and very fine tannins and nice acid balance to stop it being flabby. There is just a hint of moccha on the finish, and what a finish , it lasts for an age in your mouth. Give it 6 months to settle then enjoy over the next few years!
Its a seamless, intense, flamboyant mouthful of fruit. However, it is not flabby or overdone, but it is a wine for those who love fruit.
Please note, this is all 100% Australian in style, and not for lovers of CNP wines, if you do not like pure fruited lush wines, then this is not for you.
If however you do love this style of wine, jump in, they don't come much better!
(As ever, retailer notes) but thought it may be of interest. Most of this goes to the US so should be around, even if scarce.

Pictures capture moments, videos capture time. The former is valuable, yes, but the latter is its parent. Sadly, it's not realistic for the average person to capture a beautiful sunrise in video that's as high resolution as a photograph. That's because not everyone has a Red camera. (For good reason: they're priced in the tens of thousands, far out of the price range of the average consumer.) However, you can always make a time-lapse: a series of images taken seconds (2–30) apart and then merged to form a beautiful moving picture.
Time-lapses are a fascinating concept, and also one of the best ways to show someone what a scene looks like because you can get a larger aperture and use fancy 10mm lenses. Since it's captured differently than a video — there are less frames per second — you are able to get a much higher resolution, so you can edit and crop things to your liking. Time-lapses are perfect for constellation movements and you've probably seen a lot of them around Vimeo. If you've ever wanted to make your own, Sequence may just be the best app for that. (more…)

Computerworld UK: Johnston Press sales staff get 800 iPads as part of '24-hour digital' shift
More than 800 sales staff at Johnston Press are to get iPads as part of the local publisher's transformation to a "24-hour digital operation", the company's chief executive Ashley Highfield has told Computerworld UK.
The move will enable remote working from many of the 1,500 sales staff, the article states.
[The] regional newspaper group is deploying the Saleforce.com platform to support ad sales teams selling through new media channels, and adopting Google Apps to support a company-wide, cloud-based email system.
Other media companies using Google Apps include Telegraph newspapers and News International, which also uses Salesforce.com.
Computerworld UK adds:
Johnston Press chief executive Ashley Highfield said: "This is the beginning of the transformation of local media to a 24-hour digital operation, and provides our new and existing customers with access to exactly the audience they want to reach, where and when they want to message them."
Last week Johnston Press reported a £143.8 million loss in 2011, after writing off £163.7 million from the value of its newspaper titles.
In March Highfield signaled a move to "digital first", later describing the publishing strategy for five titles moving from daily to weekly publication as "platform neutral".

Actor James Van Der Beek played the role of delivery nurse in January (14) when his wife Kimberly went into early labour at home.
The couple had planned to have a home birth, but the doctor and nurse had yet to arrive when Kimberly's contractions indicated she was ready to give birth.
Their midwife turned up just in time for the arrival of their baby daughter Annabel, but the former Dawson's Creek star reveals he was the one who had to catch the girl as she entered the world.
He recalls, "We had the birthing tub there and we had a midwife on the way and I started filling up the tub and my wife said, 'I think I'm in early labour', and she has them quickly, so I knew immediately to fill up the tub...
"She got in the tub, had the baby before the doctor even got there... I caught the baby (as she came out)... I didn't even ask the midwife! I realized after... When you're a dad of two and you see a baby just drop, you go in."
The Van Der Beeks, who wed in 2010, are also parents to two-year-old son Joshua and daughter Olivia, three.

In this three-part weeklong series, ELIXHER examines the Black lesbian web series phenomenon.
It's human nature to long for reflections of ourselves in our surroundings. Our ability to connect with people, places, and objects is based on a feeling of familiarity. Without this component, the connection is lost. That's why it didn't surprise me that I was uninterested in a recent film's sad attempt to depict a lesbian relationship.
The acting wasn't bad; nor were the women unattractive. It was more about my inability to connect with the characters. I saw very little of myself within them. I didn't leave nor did I ask the movie attendant for my money back; instead I sat there purging myself on over-buttered popcorn and large doses of caffeine. I left feeling unsatisfied, as if I have shared the bed of an inexperienced lover.
It has been days and the junk food has left my system. However, I find myself insatiably hungry. My spirit will no longer allow me to be pacified by lesbian-inspired films and television dramas with women who have no resemblance to myself. As a queer woman of color, I long to see my beautiful sisters playing roles that reveal our truth.
What I do not want is to see unstable relationships, the come-save-a-lez male character insertion, or the downward spiral of our brown skin queer women due to their inability to deal with life's issues. I'm not asking for perfection because I find beauty in imperfection. I am, however, asking to see our truth receive just as much exposure in mainstream media as some of the well-known lesbian flicks that chose to exclude women of our shade.
In my quest, I sent out a call to speak with queer African American women that had been involved in web series. I asked them why they felt that we have shows that meet our standards popping up all over the Internet but not in mainstream media.
My first interview was with Milanda who appeared in the first season of Come Take a Walk with Me with me directed and written by Mina Monshá. Come Take a Walk with Me is a coming out story that focuses on lesbian relationships during the characters' college years. The cast is comprised of an eclectic blend of queer women of color. This alone had me at hello.
I spoke with Milanda for hours discussing a wide array of topics that included our responsibility as brown skin queer women to educate the masses of our existence, the reason why we may get a bisexual cameo here and there, and why we find it easier to showcase our talents on the web versus television or the movie screen.
The truth is that we have a responsibility to each other to ask for what we want and when we get it, to show up. Often times we hear the cries for something better but when something better presents itself, we don't always show our support. We will always be stronger in numbers. We must also look at the fact that more often than not, we create the labels and boxes that society tries to stuff us in. Because of this it is our responsibility to educate our heterosexual counterparts about who we are.
We both agreed that it seems to be easier for those outside of our space to tolerate our truth when we wrap it in a bisexual package. It seems that by including a man at some point of the story allows men to continue the fantasy of possibilities; possibly they can have us, possibly they can change us, possibly they can save us. But we don't need saving. Black women have worn capes since the dawn of time and know how to make a steak out of a honey sandwich. After my conversation with Milanda my head was in a tailspin and that is when I realized that we are a strong force with the power to create change.
Shortly after our discussion, the opportunity to speak with the cast of Lez-B-Honest fell into my lap. This web series was birthed from the minds of its producers Dacia Mitchell, Shannon Todd, and Tonica Freeman and is filmed out of Palm Beach, FL. The show tackles various issues that go on within our relationships and community. Yes there is drama, cheating, and sex, but there is also true love, spirituality, the journey to finding self, and the battle with creating one's own positive self-image.
These women brave the stigma that we have been imprisoned to and show how life really happens for some of us. After the first five minutes of watching one of the shows my soul felt quenched. And with over 6 million views combined at the end of their second season, it is obvious that I am not alone in my thinking.
I didn't know what to expect when I sat down to talk with these women, but what I received was a true representation of the queer family unit compiled of intelligent and grinding women.
In my interview, I had the pleasure of speaking with the characters Reese, Tye, Portia, Renee, Alex, and Shawna. All of the women came to the show for different reasons but after coming together found a bond that connected their spirits. I was able to learn a lot from our conversation. The most important thing I learned is that we all want the same thing.
They too would like to see more of us in mainstream media, outside of the stereotypical labels and preconceived notions. They feel that we have the power to make this change. They also expressed the importance of queer women supporting one another in their ventures and educating each other about the resources that are available in order for us to produce more of our brand of work.
See here is the thing: queer women of color come in as many types as we do shades and hair textures. To limit our ability is to kill the spirit that makes us who we are. When we invest in the next big movie or television series, we should invest not only our time and money but our hearts into media outlets that represent us in all of the forms we come in. We, as a unit, must come together because it's time the revolution be televised.
It's long overdue.

Scott Pilgrim's Progress
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World started with a brilliant indie-rock comic book.
This week, Michael Cera stars as the hapless Scott Pilgrim in a big-screen adaptation of Bryan Lee O'Malley's original comic book series. In 2006, Dan Kois paid tribute to the indie comic with a slide show. The original article is reprinted below.
Canadian cartoonist Bryan Lee O'Malley is beloved by comics aficionados: The first two volumes of his indie-rock romantic comedy Scott Pilgrim generated plenty of insider love—and a movie deal with comics geek Edgar Wright (Shaun of the Dead). But the books only managed the dinky sales typical of small-press graphic novels. When Volume 3, Scott Pilgrim and the Infinite Sadness, arrived this summer, though, it received glowing attention from big-time outlets like Entertainment Weekly and the Washington Post. According to O'Malley, his publisher, Oni Press, printed 10 times as many copies as it had of the first volume.

NEXT STEPPING STONE: Day care steps out in a new direction
COLUMBIA CITY — With little less than a month to prepare, what was known as Stepping Stones Day Care has closed, moved and will re-open Monday at 6 a.m. as a child care program under the Whitley County YMCA.Stepping Stones Director Debbie Gates will continue with the YMCA's program. According to Gates, parents who had utilized the day care that was once housed with First Church of God in Columbia City, were concerned over the idea of not having a childcare program in Columbia City."The parents were worried about having to take their kids to Fort Wayne or Warsaw. There were other childcare options, but finding one that could absorb 130 kids made parents think of looking to other cities," said Gates.With the news of Stepping Stones Day Care closing, parents came together to form a task force focused on finding a new childcare solution.Gates said, "The YMCA had been interested in having a childcare program about five years ago. They had thought about starting their own. So, when this happened, it was like a door opening for them and for us."To Gates and the many parents she served, there wasn't a question of need. After a 13 year partnership with First Church of God, the parent task force was faced with finding the right facility. It was the parents that spearheaded the charge to see that childcare stayed in Columbia City. Within four days of the announcement that Stepping Stones was closing, parents were working on meetings and taking action.City leaders also got behind the need. Gates said that in one of the meetings held with parents, Mayor Ryan Daniel was present and commented on the need for a local childcare program. Doug Brown, from the Whitley County Chamber of Commerce, agreed.On Monday morning, the former Stepping Stones staff of about 13 will operate as YMCA employees. Gates said that the YMCA and its board has agreed to a short term commitment for a childcare program that is an extension of what the YMCA offers and it will be considered as one of the many programs that serve local families. In fact, according to Miller, the YMCA is the largest childcare provider in the nation, but the greater Fort Wayne area YMCAs don't provide that service. This is unique to the area and a first for the Whitley County location."Right now we won't be a licensed childcare program because we are waiting on the proper inspections. But we hope in two weeks to have classified as a registered ministry," Gates said.The classification change will mean less stringent regulations on the program. Gates said that this means that their new location, New Hope Wesleyan Church, will be able to meet the guidelines for the state.One of the biggest changes parents will face comes down to food. Under the new classification, the childcare program will not provide lunches and snacks for the kids. "Under Stepping Stones, the kids were not allowed to bring their own food. We even provided infant foods. Now, kids will bring their own lunches and snacks," Gates said. "New Hope Wesleyan has a simple kitchen and is not able to meet the state requirements for us to serve meals. These are just some of the bugs we have to work out."Miller said that New Hope Wesleyan Church has "been great at stepping up and filling a void." Stepping Stones last day open was Friday. Gates said a group of parents and staff from First Church of God took care of moving equipment today. "We are leaving a lot and taking a lot. But that is the agreement we've come to," said Gates.Sunday, an open house will be held at the program's new location from 2 to 4 p.m. for parents to come and see where they will be dropping off their kids come Monday morning.New Hope Wesleyan is located at 971 N. 400 West in Columbia City. For more information on the new childcare program, contact the Whitley County YMCA at 244-9622.

Purple hearts: Butterick 5605
Added Jun 27, 2013
by serenageo
London, United K...
Pattern Description – Mid-calf dress has close-fitting, self-lined bodice with side front and back seams, flared skirt with side pockets, back pleats and zipper.Bodice back extends into tie ends.
Since I used a heavier cotton, I decided not to line the bodice and use facings. I eliminated the front seams on skirt and bodice and then I took out 1 inch form the bodice length and 6 inches from the skirt.
The zipper is handpicked, I did this for the first time and it looks great.
I didn't get to make a matching belt, but I intend to.
Material Notes
I used a medium weight cotton with a bit of stretch.

I love this, it's really cute and looks great on you. I think it's styled to perfection, you don't need the matching belt.

Orlando Cruz, a top-ranked featherweight from Puerto Rico, has announced that he is "a proud gay man," making him the first openly gay fighter in boxing history.
Cruz issued a press release late Wednesday night confirming his sexual orientation.
"Being in the closet is the most horrible thing a human being can endure," Cruz said yesterday. "Imagine living in a barrel with just three holes to peek out. I'm free now."
Cruz (18-2-1, 9 KOs) was on the same Puerto Rican 2000 Olympic team as multi-world champions Miguel Cotto and Ivan Calderon. He made his professional debut on Dec. 15, 2000. His next fight is scheduled for Oct. 19 in Kissimmee, Fla., where he will defend his WBO NABO title against Jorge Pazos. A win against Pazos could position Cruz for a world title shot.
Cruz, 31, said the initial reaction from his peers has been positive.
"Actually the support has been overwhelming from the boxing community," he said. "I got support publicly from my Olympic stable mate Miguel Cotto and [singer] Ricky Martin. The World Boxing Organization [WBO] has supported me 100 percent; my promoter All Star Boxing as well."
Cruz said coming out has been a relief.
"I've been fighting for more than 24 years and as I continue my ascendant career, I want to be true to myself," he said. "I want to try to be the best role model I can be for kids who might look into boxing as a sport and a professional career. I have and will always be a proud Puerto Rican. I have always been and always will be a proud gay man."

For the first time ever, the annual regional meeting for the Missouri Retired Teachers Association was held in Carthage.
For the first time ever, the annual regional meeting for the Missouri Retired Teachers Association was held in Carthage.
State leaders for the association and 44 members traveled from six counties to attend the event. Donna Linn, president of the Carthage Area Retired Teachers Association, said there was good representation of Barry, Barton, Dade, Jasper, Lawrence and Newton counties on Thursday.
"Many hands were involved in this," Linn said, gazing at the crowd gathered in the Nazarene Church's family life center. "It's been incredible to see each one do what they do best to make this a success. I've been staggered by the generosity of the community too – businesses have given so much to make this event special for these teachers."
The Missouri Retired Teachers Association was established in 1960, and it wasn't long after that Carthage established its own chapter. State leaders lobby for teachers across the state, keep the association informed on issues both at the state level and community level, rights as citizens as well as current scams to be aware. Linn said this is the only organization that keeps its focus on educators and protects their well-being.
The association, on a state level, has given back the equivalent amount of 10 million dollars in monetary donations, donated goods and volunteer hours of work to the state of Missouri in 2012. (This does not include the number years served in their teaching careers.)
"It always blows my mind to see a group of teachers like this and think about what they've invested," said Ruth Sneed, 16-year member of the Carthage chapter. "I'm in this group because of the support on education issues, especially our retirees, and the fellowship with wonderful people."
The teachers enjoyed an all-day event that featured many Carthage facets. Music was provided by Don Campbell, retired Carthage High School principal, lunch was provided by Big Blue Bakery, and entertainment was provided by the CHS Suite Sounds.
Making this event possible: Carthage Area Retired School Personnel; Carthage Chamber of Commerce; Arvest Bank; Southwest Missouri Bank; Long John Silvers; Schreibers; JR Learning; Mercy McCune-Brooks Hospital; CHS FFA and Precious Moments.
